How I Got Here
I have always had an interest or more like a love for
animals ever since I can remember. As a young girl I
can think back to days walking home from school and
seeing a dog on the sidewalk and encourage it home
with me.  I would then tell my mother that this dog
was lost and needed to find it's home.  They were
always from the neighborhood, but I always thought
they were lost and were afraid.
I grew up with at least three dogs in the house. My
first dog that was given to me was a rescue from the
pound. This rescue was a mix and I named her Fanny
Mae because her tail would wag so hard from being
so happy. The next dog I can remember was Turkey.
She was an owner surrender from a friend of the
family. All during these time these dogs were my best
friends.
About Us
Oh yes, we did have other dogs in the house equally
wonderful but nothing like my friends. When I would
get into trouble, I wouldn't be grounded to my room...I
would be grounded from playing, petting, or talking to
my friends. That was the worst punishment I could have
ever had.
As the years went on I would find sick or injured
animals and bring them home. I would at anytime either
have a sick bird that a cat had caught to a mouse. My
daughter Theresa and I found a crow that had fallen out
of its nest. We named him Edgar Allen Crow which we
nursed back to full growth so that he could return to
the wild and do what crows do best. I have tried to
instill a sense of love and passion in my daughter also
when it comes to animals. From an early age I kept my
daughter around horses, dogs, cats, cows, birds, and
any other I could muster up for her to learn about.
Since moving here to Utah I have become more
passionate about rescuing. Raising a pup from one day
old to bottle feeding kittens when their mother was
killed. I started being a foster mom in 2000 for a rescue
group called Wag-n-Train and I also worked for a
Veterinarian in the community. I continue learning so
that I can grow and better help the animals around me.
I have learned that holistic medicine works quite well in
cases of Parvo, Kennel Cough, Separation anxiety, and
other illness. I have also learned and passed on that
training in a non-aggressive manner with positive
reinforcements which also help build trust and loyalty in
an animal.
Starting the Fullmer menagerie with my husband Lyle
has been a dream turned to reality. I have high hopes
that I can touch the lives of a few unwanted and
unloved animals along with education the community
just a bit on animal rescue and how they can help.
Hello my name is Jeannine
Fullmer and this is what I
drive in order to keep my
dream alive.
This is part of my property
where I keep my horses. This is
also where I am planning to put
the new Menagerie.
My husband and I where out on a hike and we
came apond a baby fawn stuck in the mud. It was
crying out for it's mother. So we decided to pull
the baby out and set it aside for when it's
mother came back to help.
This is my husband Lyle and I
out on a hike enjoying life.
This is just a small
portion of my own
wonderful and loving
pets that I have at
home.
